Before I had my first child, I never believed I would be part of a mothers group. Be that as it may, now that I have become a mum, chatting to other parents about what is happening in my life has benefited me immensely. We chat about how we deal with our children, what to do and not to do, we share recipes, and we love to chat about the most recent baby fashions we have picked up.

I usually go out with 3 other women, once a month, to catch up on the latest new. We often meet at Gerrys Bar-B-Q (which is in WILLIAMSTOWN, NJ) as that is quite central for all of us. Last month was really interesting seeing we discussed baby clothes. I have been giving my baby organic food from the beginning but it had never crossed my mind to buying organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most popular products in America and one of the most devastating to the environment and to farmers. The run off from these farms has destroyed ecosystems and particularly water bodies. Organic products are made without the need for artificial fertilisers and chemicals. Alternatively, organic farming relies on things like crop rotation, raising the quality of soils naturally, and using organic pest control techniques.

You can get beautiful organic baby clothing online from a number of stores. Sckoon has some gorgeous organic baby clothes.

Benefits of Organic Baby Clothing

Getting organic clothing means you are purchasing clothes which have been produced in an eco friendly manner, or at least in a way which causes less damage to our habitat. No or a reduction in the use of herbicides and fertilisers means less pollution of our soils and lakes, reduced health problems for farm employees, and fewer health risks for our children by lessening their contact with toxic chemicals.

Quite a few wholesalers of baby clothes also sell a range of organic clothes or you can find designers completely dedicated to organic baby clothing. Thankfully, there are a lot of marks to choose from and all ages are catered for, from toddlers to teenagers. Of course, organic fashion for men and women is also obtainable and I am looking into that for myself and my man.

I am not saying that I am just going to get organic cotton or bamboo clothes (which is a fantastic alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my baby but I am absolutely going try to whenever it is available.
